FWIW, I had Astra do it as you suggested: https://pelican-model-gallery.alienfluid.chatgpt.site

I used Light mode and it used up all my limits for the day and had to continue the following day.

To understand the code they are shipping requires some level of proficiency. Their inability to do fizzbuzz without AI calls that into question.

Fuck it, I am buying a Max Pro subscription just because of this.

What argument? Your unsubstantiated opinion?

That, perhaps, is the end goal.

My understanding is that every major attempt at getting to a two-state solution has been encumbered by pre-conditions set by Israel that have made the negotiations a non-starter.

For example, any deal that would have Israel give back territories it has been occupying since 1967 has never even been on the table.

The Oslo accords, perhaps the most serious of these, were deeply unpopular on both sides.

Also, any and all attempts by Palestinians to get formal recognition in the UN have been repeatedly vetoed by the United States.

You’re right. I was referring to the Palestinian Territories in the context of annexation.

Hamas is a symptom of desperation. It certainly is not acting in the best interest of Gazans and they are suffering due to that.

But on the other hand, diplomacy has not been an effective tool for Gazans and, as all signs indicate, it never will. Not at least until US withdraws its unconditional support for Israel.

With status quo, Gazans have the choice to lie down and die or continue living under deplorable conditions under a military occupation, as Israel slowly annexes the land that, under international law, doesn’t belong to them.

A two-state solution is a fever dream if the occupier is uninterested in it. We’ve seen that repeatedly for the past 75+ years in actions and literal words.

So the question is, if you were the subjugated population, what would you do?
